Cheapo milk frother
« on: August 08, 2008, 09:35:00 PM »
Whooo hooo!!!

Got this cheapo "drink mixer" from a bargain store in one of the malls here for the equivalent of $1.25! China-made Aerolatte look-alike that runs on 2 AA batteries. Got 2 so I'd have backup when the first one dies.  :)

The wifey enjoys the latte and cappuccino with the Aeropress!

Now gotta learn latte art!

My wife had one of those.. till it died... and loved it, I should get her another one, but then again it would be harder to convince her we need a really good espresso machine

I have one. They work pretty good for milk, but I use mine more often for salad dressings. I can't be bothered by a manual whisk.  ;D

If you want a really really cheap frother, just get a mouthfull of milk, swish it around like you would mouth wash, and spit it back into the cup.  Don't cost a penny that way  :o ;D
